Sorption and desorption of 17α-trenbolone and trendione on five soils.

The metabolites 17α-trenbolone and 17α-estradiol are principal metabolites in cattle excreta following the administration of Synovex ONE, which contains trenbolone acetate and estradiol benzoate. As part of the environmental assessment of the use of Synovex ONE, data were generated to characterize the fate of 17α-trenbolone, and its metabolite trendione in the environment. Predictions of the fate and environmental concentrations of these hormones after land application require accurate estimates of the sorption of these compounds in soils.

Degradation and transformation of 17α-estradiol in water-sediment systems under controlled aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

One of the principal metabolites in cattle excreta following the administration of Synovex® ONE, which contains estradiol benzoate and trenbolone acetate, is 17α-estradiol. As part of the environmental assessment of the use of Synovex ONE, data were generated to characterize the fate of 17α-estradiol in the environment. Studies were conducted to determine the degradation and transformation of 17α-[ C]-estradiol in 2 representative water-sediment systems each under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

Degradation and transformation of 17α-trenbolone in aerobic water-sediment systems.

Synovex® ONE is an extended-release implant containing the active ingredients estradiol benzoate and trenbolone acetate for use in beef steers and heifers. Trenbolone acetate is rapidly hydrolyzed in cattle to form 17β-trenbolone and its isomer, 17α-trenbolone, which are further transformed to a secondary metabolite, trendione. As part of the environmental assessment for the use of Synovex ONE, data were generated to characterize the fate of 17α-trenbolone, which is the principal metabolite found in cattle excreta, in the environment.
